Contemporary Abstract Landscape Painting, Aspen Tree "Aspen IV" by Colorado Abstract Artist Candace French

Aspen IV is currently committed to the Pébéo Mixed Media traveling exhibit. Commissions are welcome!

Playful experimentation inspired this work. I used lots of layers and texture, revealing and concealing the aspen. I love aspen because they have such a strong root system in how they support one another while growing.

Blazing Transitions II - New birch painting by Niki Gulley

Blazing Transitions II ©2012 Niki Gulley

48" x 36" • Textured painting on canvas

I used to love it as a kid when my parents would take me to the forest preserves near our home outside of Chicago. We would spend the whole day bike riding, picnicking and being immersed in nature and I relished this time with my family. In Blazing Transitions II I wanted to recreate those warm memories, choosing reds and yellows of autumn to heighten those happy feelings and using energetic strokes with my paint reminiscent of a carefree, simpler time.

"Traversing Splendor" - New textured oil painting by Niki Gulley

"Traversing Splendor" ©2012 Niki Gulley

48" x 60" textured oil painting on wrap around canvas

I wanted you to feel the joy and peacefulness of walking through the forest ablaze with color on a beautiful autumn day. With soft light illuminating the walkway and the distance sparkling in golden light, the only sounds to be heard are the crunching of fallen leaves underfoot and a slight breeze flickering the leaves overhead. What lies ahead? The mysterious glow from beyond beckons you forward.

Email me for more information on this birch painting.
